Ken has the World Exclusive play of 'Wishing On A Star', the new single from Seal which was originally a 70's hit for Rose Royce. And Caro Emerald chooses the Tracks Of My Years.

Ken has the World Exclusive play of 'Wishing On A Star' - the new single from Seal. The song was originally a hit for Rose Royce and it reached number 3 in the UK charts back in 1978. The single is the first release from Seal's forthcoming album 'Soul 2'. Plus chart topping Dutch singer Caro Emerald chooses two more records for 'Tracks Of My Years' which today features a record-breaking single from Rihanna and a classic jazz standard by the great Ella Fitzgerald. Plus there's a track from the Album Of The Week and another round of the popular music quiz Popmaster. In October 2010, Caro was awarded the Dutch Music Prize 'Edison' for Best Female Artist.
